Balance Massage Therapy Ann Arbor, founded in 2008 by UM grads Josie Ann Lee and Christin Draybuck, is dedicated to ensuring their clients leave happy. With their commitment to listening to the needs of their clients, matching them to expert therapists, and providing exceptionally friendly service, Balance Massage Therapy has grown exponentially, doubling their studio size and performing nearly 70,000 massages. They have created a business community that clients are excited and proud to be a part of.

As the number of massage studios has increased in Ann Arbor and licensing requirements have been implemented by the state of Michigan, Balance Massage Therapy believes that this is a positive development for both the massage therapy profession and clients. They strive to educate the public about the benefits of massage and raise the standards and expectations of the industry. One of the key benefits of massage is its ability to be tailored to the client's current needs.

With expertise in various modalities and techniques, the therapists at Balance Massage Therapy are able to provide the greatest positive impact on the client. Balance Massage Therapy has made a significant impact on the lives of their clients, helping them navigate their way through cancer treatments, recover from surgery, prepare for races, and find relief from the daily stresses of life. Their responsibility is to ensure that their clients, team, and community leave Balance healthier, more mobile, and less stressed than when they arrived.

In line with their commitment to education, Balance Massage Therapy announced the creation of Balance Massage Therapy University (BMTU) in 2016. BMTU offers a range of educational opportunities, including visiting instructors, pop-up workshops, regular monthly trainings, online materials, instructor-led classrooms, and team-led workshops.
